I never had a particular love of Microsoft at any point in my life but at least they had a diverse portfolio of various products from software to services to hardware of all sorts.
Now they have abandoned most of that (and continuing to abandon more with each month) as they pivot to being one of many AI-focused grift companies. They now sell bullshit, lies, fraud, and scams as their primary products.
Incredible transition into a poisoned, bloated, festering asswipe of a company that isn't worth a moment of anyone's time or respect.
They own A LOT of gaming companies, stakes in AI, and Azure.
They aren't going anywhere.
They've started killing/selling them though.
